Vingança Mortal
O novo policial da saga Mortal é chocante. «Era um corpo. Morto. Um cadáver. Largou-o e gritou enquanto fugia, aterrorizada de morte.» Corpos de homens e mulheres começam a surgir em Lisboa e arredores. Cada morte um modus operandi diferente. Cada cadáver mais mutilado que o outro. O psicopata responsável pelos crimes auto intitula-se de «Justiceiro», empurrando os inspetores Leonardo Rosa e Marta Mateus para uma investigação desenfreada para evitar mais mortes. Entretanto, Leonardo tem de enfrentar um reencontro inesperado que remexe em sentimentos e cicatrizes profundas e antigas, ao mesmo tempo que ajuda Marta a superar um trauma recente. No novo livro da Saga Mortal, nada é o que parece e ninguém está a salvo... nem o próprio Leonardo, que se sente cada vez mais dominado pela sua escuridão. Conseguirá escapar?
Migration, Dislocation and Movement on Screen
Contemporary screen industries such as film and television have become primary sites for visualizing borders, migration, maps, and travel as processes of separation and dislocation, but also connection. Migration, Dislocation and Movement on Screen pulls case studies in film and television industries from throughout Europe, North Africa, and Asia to interrogate the nature of movement via moving images. By combining theoretical, interdisciplinary engagements with empirical research, this volume offers a new way to look at screen media's representations of our contemporary world's transnational and cosmopolitan imaginaries.

Public screens
Il lavoro di ricerca presentato in questo volume viene pubblicato in una delle fasi forse più caotiche e convulse della storia politica italiana, caratterizzata dall’emergere di nuovi movimenti e dall’affermazione di leadership che innovano profondamente il discorso politico nei linguaggi, nei temi e nelle forme di storytelling. Al pubblico televisivo della politica tradizionale sembra poi affiancarsi un pubblico che padroneggia internet e i social network sites, e che si mobilita per imporre un forte rinnovamento nei temi e nelle modalità di funzionamento delle procedure democratiche. La prospettiva in cui si muovono gli studi di questo volume è proprio quella di provare a intercetta...

The Israeli Central Bank
This book examines the local and global political and institutional processes that have led to the strengthening of the Israeli central bank within the context of the now predominant neoliberal regime. Using Israel as a case study to identify broader patterns around the world, the authors examine the strengthening of central banks as a key dimension of the institutionalisation of the global regime. Drawing on an in-depth analysis of the political economy of the Israeli central bank since the mid-1980s, the authors show how the Bank of Israel mobilized global logics in order to strengthen its position vis-à-vis competing actors, especially the Ministry of Finance, and to promote the institut...

My Father's Heroes
My Father's Heroes is the story of a 2nd generation Italian-American boy, Frankie, growing up in New York during the 1940'to 1960's, who is torn between his mother's deeply religious beliefs and his father's prophetic pragmatism. Frankie's father, a die- hard Yankee fan, uses baseball and the players of their generation to bond with him. Through Frankie's eyes, we see the Roosevelt years, World War II, the Atom Bomb, the Cuban Missile Crisis and other world events unfold. This is a gritty tale of growing up in the Bronx after WWII, and a father's love of his son as he experiences the trials of adolescence. It's through their discussions and admiration for the baseball players of that era that Franco and his father form a strong father-son bond, Franco's story, however, also includes episodes of ethnic conflict, child sexual abuse, and a stunning ending.
